has .pdf copies of many years of "Billiards" magazine.
This picture is from the July, 1928 issue.
Cranfield would have been 12 at he time, so the picture may have been taken earlier.

Great, a run of 29 on a 5x10 at age 9. My high run up to a few months ago was also 29. On a 9 footer. At age 41. With over 20 years of playing behind me. :thud: :banghead:

One thing I noticed is that he is the son of a pool room owner, that seems to hold true for many a great player.

Yes, but don't be too hard on yourself, you had to keep one foot on the ground. :wink:
